Did This Filmmaker Find D.B. Cooper?
Last month, it was reported that the FBI may have quietly re-opened one of the greatest unsolved PNW mysteries of all time: the case of D.B. Cooper, the infamous hijacker who parachuted out of a plane and disappeared somewhere over SW Washington in 1971 with $200,000 in ransom money. Today we’re listening back to our conversation with filmmaker T.J. Regan about his documentary, “I am D.B. Cooper,” where he joins a man claiming to be D.B. Cooper on a treasure hunt for the remaining ransom money.
